Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the only government officials in pre-Communist Tibet to have been educated in English recounts the pivotal events that changed his homeland, and the fate of his people, forever. Rinchen Sadutshang was born in 1928 near the Tibet-China border to a well-off trading family, educated in a Jesuit school in the Himalayan foothills of British India, and served in the Dalai Lama’s government both before and after the 1959 Communist takeover of Lhasa. A refugee alongside tens of thousands of his countrymen, he played a crucial role in bringing the plight of the Tibetan people to the world’s attention. In this memoir, published just months after his passing in July of 2015, the author recounts his long, fascinating career in service to the Tibetan cause. From meeting British viceroy Lord Waverly in India and General Chiang Kai-shek in China in 1946 to being part of the delegation that successfully pled Tibet’s case before the United Nations in the 1960s, he offers a first-hand perspective on a number of memorable historical events.

She thought she was on the path that God had preordained for her. But when her life took an unexpected turn, Bailey was left to question God’s ability to dictate her life. With shattered dreams surrounding her, Bailey found herself looking for answers to where she should go from here. In Unforeseen: Learning to Trust in God’s Plan When Life Takes Unexpected Turns, Bailey shares how she learned to trust God with a future she had never planned. As she battled whether God’s plans for her were truly as good as He had promised in His Word, Bailey began to see that His ways were definitely not like hers—they were better. Bailey shares some of her darkest moments and how, in spite of it all, her life has been more fulfilled when she follows God’s plan. Come along with Bailey to explore how God can direct your future to be more amazing than you could have ever dreamed.

Book excerpt: Vertiginous Life provides a theory of the intense temporal disorientation brought about by life in crisis. In the whirlpool of unforeseen social change, people experience confusion as to where and when they belong on timelines of previously unquestioned pasts and futures. Through individual stories from crisis Greece, this book explores the everyday affects of vertigo: nausea, dizziness, breathlessness, the sense of falling, and unknowingness of Self. Being lost in time, caught in the spin-cycle of crisis, people reflect on belonging to modern Europe, neoliberal promises of accumulation, defeated futures, and the existential dilemmas of life held captive in the uncanny elsewhen.

Book excerpt: The last thing Cassandra wanted to do was to fall in love with a captain from one of those mega yachts that parked outside of the boat dock she lived on. She was drawn to him from the first moment she saw him, yet she couldn't understand why. Every part of her being told her to run as fast as she could away from this man! Yet, she couldn't stay away. At the time, she had no idea of the danger she would be placed in or the many secrets he had. She had heard that there were modern day pirates in the Caribbean, but never had she come face to face with any...until now. Had she known in the beginning, she may have not fallen prey to unforeseen circumstances.

Book excerpt: A Tapestry of Life is the true story of a woman who, in her quest to fulfill her dreams and have the family that she had always imagined, struggled with pain, disillusionment and heartbreak but came through it with an understanding of the rich beauty of life. Like many young girls growing up in the 1950's and 1960's, Daphne had dreams of growing up, getting married and having a family. She had well-organized plans for her future. She did not have any concept of the roadblocks that she would encounter or the challenges that she would have to meet as she journeyed toward this goal. Through a diagnosis of infertility and decisions about fertility treatments, to pursuit of adoption, to marrying and acquiring step children, to eventually achieving a pregnancy and then to gaining a daughter through an informal foster care situation she eventually created her eclectic family. Despite her dreams of having children who transitioned easily into adulthood, her children each seemed to have some struggle to overcome. The family faced challenges including developmental disabilities, cancer, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, anorexia, bi-polar disorder and teen pregnancy. Over the years Daphne learned a lot and grew stronger. This is a story about perseverance and finding peace in the unpredictable nature of this life. The author's faith matured through the challenges and struggles and became the foundation on which her family developed. She found that with faith she did not need all the answers and she did not need to know the future. She learned that the path is not always clear but we can still enjoy the journey.

Book excerpt: How will you respond when life, as you know it, has been drastically altered by suffering? When what you hoped for and dreamed of is suddenly gone, how will your faith carry on? Eric Austin reveals what an enduring faith can lead to in this memoir, that employs the very real (and almost too raw) story of his wife’s and his journey through suffering mental illness and its ensuing substance abuse. Suffering does not just alter a person—it alters marriages, families, friendships, careers, hopes, and dreams. This wild story, however, demonstrates God’s desire to take the very suffering that has drastically altered your life to radically alter you, and others, into looking like His Son, Jesus. Austin weaves together story after story, highlighting biblical truths learned out of them, all to reassure us of the relentlessness of God’s goodness in the recklessness of our circumstances. Hurting, confused, or grieving, God is inviting you—through your suffering—to share in His mission to destroy death and bring life to others.
